GraphQL for .NET VS Telegram.Bot

The way that’s done in Visualizer is quite specific to my needs and to the library that I’m using, called GraphQl-Dotnet.

I'm starting a brand new project. Looks like if we want to do GraphQL in .NET, it's either graphql-dotnet or Hot Chocolate. Both look pretty good on paper.

This is a template API using Clean Architecture alongside a .net implementation of GraphQL.

Customising the default ParallelExecutionStrategy is harder though. The best way to achieve this is to take the existing source code and modify it. The key section we need to modify is the last part of the try/catch in ExecuteNodeTreeAsync:

Because it can depend on the context. I know the PHP Laravel integration for GraphQL I used was leveraging the Carbon interface instead of PHP's native Date type. In NestJS the integrated solution allows you to choose whether to use UNIX timestamps or ISO datetimes. TypeGraphQL does something similar if I'm not wrong, and the .NET library added a bunch of date-related scalars in a PR they made for v2.

If you're loving your current stack, you should stick with it :) But, if you're experiencing some of the problems described in the article, you might want to try Apollo. It's incrementally adoptable, so you don't have to rewrite your whole app to start using it. There's also a community maintained .NET implementation of GraphQL, so you could use that for your graph and use Apollo Client to connect it to the frontend.

Studying guides and the API documentation. Actually, why are you even asking us, just ask ChatGPT. People obsess too much about how you can break or the fact that it will make up shit when discussing historical facts, but for everything else it's actually amazing. Like a friend who knows a little bit of everything and you just ask them if you don't know how to google the answer.
